GeForce RTX 5060 Ti appears on Steam Hardware Survey list before Radeon RX 9070 series

So RTX 5070 and 5060Ti are on the Steam hardware survey but the RX 9070 and 9070 XT are not. So much for the AMD is gaining a lot of market share idea.

Some things worth to keep in mind:

1) It's easy to win marketshare when you actual presence in the market is very small. Going from, as an example, 10 to a 15% share is a big increase, but it still pales in comparison with what Nvidia has.

2) The huge wins in marketshare came, if I remember correctly, from Japan, where the AMD employees there said so and also made fun of themselvs. "We're not used to selling os many GPUs" was one of the quotes from that discussion.

3) The Steam survery, while very welcome and useful in some ways, leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to track AMD GPUs. It's something that we've talked about several times over at Conina's Monthly Steam hardware survey thread.

GN's review of the 5060 is out:

Tl;dw: Waste of sand.

Also, he mentioned several times to not buy it and wait for the 9060XT reviews coming out in 2 days, so I'm pretty confident he has the numbers already and they're crushing the 5060, but can't legally say so yet.

The cards go on sale on Thursday, but I think reviews will be up one day earlier. So yeah, they very much have the numbers.

And it's easy to understand why the 5060 isn't worth it. At the same price as the 8GB 9060XT, both are limited by their memory capacity, but the AMD card will have a more powerful die in it so, when the amount of VRAM isn't a problem, it should be a fair bit faster than the Nvidia card.
